SO: a kind of war with words actualized in my thoughts
As quickly actualized as they slip and slide, like wild
Salmon caught by wild bears in the streams and rivers
They madly so single-mindedly swim up them to spawn,
My tapping here on either iPhone or iPad is much the
Same, slippery to my fingers, the letters and numbers
On these two devices are acting much in the same way
I have to be careful, use my eagle’s eyes to center TAP
Them or incur the wrath of letters besides them creating
New words like “ rthose “ instead of those, and words
That are vulgar or nonsensical or embarrassing and so
Wrong! So attention to my work, trying not to lose my
Quick, rapid trains of thought that are really so spontaneous,
So determined by my thought processes and my being in tune
With each moment, “ myvstringing “ , my stringing together
The energies of thought and word and phrase and meaning
“ Associations,nthat “ Associations , that “give me no time to
pause or correct, and very often, my though is lost forever be-
Cause it was so immediate, so visceral, so “ brainal “ , like
This word I just made-up, and that might not reoccur to me
Ever again, that, being watchful and as aware and as careful
As possible, I like the wild bear or will eagle will capture
And later release these delightful wild salmon to decipher,
Mind - digest, regurgitate for me and my children, much
Like sparrows and robins that catch their words and feed
Them to their ravenous children! So I stop now and perhaps
Later like hobos jump back onto this train, like in the movie
“ Fried Green Tomatoes “, and toss the food in cans down
To those starving people living on the tracks of the train
Less fortunate than others, May my words act like these
Cans and feed these peops so starved for education and learning!
